2000 Mazda MX-5 Miata "Special Edition-Only 3000 Produced" "Only 73K" Rare-6speed This is very well cared for 2000 Mazda MX-5 Miata "Special Edition" with only 73K. These cars are very hard to find with a this Low mileage. It is also very difficult to find one that has not been modified in anyway(BONE STOCK). This car has always been babied and preserved. It is obvious this car was always garaged and very well serviced it's entire life I do have quite a few service records from the. This car also comes with a clean Autocheck (No Accidents). The Inerior: is in very very good condition. Non-Smoker car therefore no burns or other wear on the seats or carpet. It has a 6-Speed manual transmission tat shifta smooth and the clutch is firm and releases where it should. The 6- speed is only available in the 10th Anniversary and the Special Edition. It also has ice cold A/C, Factory Bose Stereo, Cruise Control, and all options work as they should. It also has other additional features that metioned below. The Exterior: is in very very good condition as well. There is no damage or rust on this car maybe a few rock chips in the hood that is it. Far less than you would expect for a car this age and you have to get very close to see any. As I said it appears to have always garaged so the paint has nice depth and shine. It also has the Factory upgraded Polished Alloy Wheels, Factory Aero Sport Package, that do give this car a great look, but everything is still factory stock. It does have a couple of scrapes at the very bottom of the front spoiler that can not be helped, becuase of the design of the ground effects, they have been touched up are are really not noticable. This car is ready to go. It has the 1.8L. 140 horsepower engine with the 6-speed manual transmission witch is a great combination that has plenty of power and tork, yet gets really good mileage. As stated these cars are very hard to find with this low mileage, in this condition,with only 3000 of them ever produced. But you know that if you have been looking. This car looks even better in person. This is some of the differences that the Special Edition has and what makes it so unique Special edition for 2000 For 2000, the Miata Special Edition model (which is limited to 250 cars in Canada) comes in a unique Mahogony Mica exterior colour. Like the 10th Anniversary model, the 2000 Special Edition offers a standard 6-speed manual transmission while all other Miatas have a 5-speed manual transmission as standard equipment. In terms of features, the Miata Special Edition is not only a Miata with the optional Leather Package and Aero Sport Package, plus a few unique items such as the 6-speed transmission.

Mazda3 diesel under consideration for US, hybrid not so much
Thu, 27 Jun 2013It's been a long time coming, but we finally clapped our eyes on the real deal, officially official 2014 Mazda3 in hatchback form yesterday. Yet there's a lot more to learn about this next-generation version of what has always been one of our favorite compacts. We know that the US version will come with one of two Skyactiv engines, but what about alternatives? Will there be any... or will the gasoline-fed four-cylinders be powerful and frugal enough to carry the day?
According to Automotive News, the answer is a definite maybe. Mazda North America CEO Jim O'Sullivan has told the trade publication that his employer will consider adding the company's well-liked 2.2-liter Skyactiv diesel powerplant to the model down the road. However, the company first wants to see how the engine fares with American consumers in its big-brother Mazda6 sedan, a model that goes on sale later this year. As for a potential Mazdaspeed3 successor, mum is still the word.
Anything else? Uncharacteristically, Mazda will build a hybrid model of its new 3. We say "uncharacteristically," because the Japanese independent has long shied away from gas-electric powertrain tech. In fact, it's gone so far as to boldly announce its aversion to the technology, with auto show banners proclaiming "Not Electric. Not Hybrid. Not A Drag To Drive." Despite all that, this new generation of Mazda3 will in fact be the company's first full hybrid production model. According to AN, however, O'Sullivan says that the company has "no plans" to sell it in the US.
2014 Mazda CX-5 with 2.5-liter Skyactiv engine
Tue, 05 Feb 2013Back in October, we compared the relative merits of two new and very good small crossovers: the 2013 Ford Escape and 2013 Mazda CX-5. The CX-5 we tested then had Mazda's 2.0-liter Skyactiv-G engine under its hood, and it managed to just edge out the EcoBoosted Ford despite being down by some 23 horsepower and 34 pound-feet of torque. Had it been available, the 2.5-liter Skyactiv engine that we recently had the opportunity to try out in the 2014 Mazda CX-5, it may have made that comparison even easier to call in the Japanese CUV's favor.
Clearly, if you're in the market for a reasonably sized crossover, the CX-5 should, at the very least, be on your test-drive list. The new engine offering will let buyers opt for a stronger powerplant, with 184 hp and 185 lb-ft on tap. On our second day in Austin's Hill Country - the first was spent quick-spinning the 2014 Mazda6 i Sport, you'll recall - we covered a couple of hundred miles and put the new CX-5 through its paces; here's what we turned up.
Driving Notes
Miata driver pulls off hilariously diabolical move in fender-to-fender racing
Wed, 27 Aug 2014Racing is all about finding the little advantages over competitors that allow you to get ahead. Sometimes those are legitimate means - like being able to take advantage of a better line through a corner - and other times drivers get a little more creative for a leg up over opponents. Sometimes things might even go a little too far. Case in point: just watch the opening of this Mazda MX-5 Cup race from Silverstone in the UK.
According to the YouTube description, we're riding with James Rogers in this video, and he appears to be pretty talented behind the wheel. Rogers has a great start from fifth that has him in third within just a few corners. He starts stalking the top two drivers, who are already having a fantastic race themselves, but then we see that the person in second is clearly willing to do whatever it takes to win. Just watch the video, and you'll see what we mean. Bravo (?) to that racer for some very quick, albeit fiendish, thinking.
